yeah, content marketing doesn't annoy me nearly as much when it's this good (and this isn't technically CM since they're open about the fact that they're announcing their new app version)

And when it's good, it's good. I just clicked buy on Halide. I'd downloaded and played with it back when I got my iPhoneXR, and I only upgraded from that recently purely because I wanted some of the camera advances. $80 to buy specialised software for my $1800 camera (that also happens to be a phone) feels totally like the right thing to do.

  Yeah I just tried it out and holy shit it's light years better than the default camera app when it come to letting you adjust manual focus and what not. I signed up for the trial. The yearly fee is only $11.99. How did you spend $80?

    According to the Halide II App Store landing page[1], a one time purchase is $50. Whether or not it's easily accessible in the app is another story. > In-App Purchases 1. Yearly $11.99 2. Monthly $2.99 3. One Time Purchase $49.99 [1] https://apps.apple.com/us/app/halide-mark-ii-pro-camera/id885697368 https://apps.apple.com/us/app/halide-mark-ii-pro-camera/id88...

      I just downloaded it today. First thing you do when you open it is choose which of those three you want to pay (or start the free trial with a cancellable auto-subscribe for the yearly), do the 2-second Apple Pay prompt, then it sends you right to the camera. That is to say, the one-time was immediately easily accessible.

    > The yearly fee is only $11.99. How did you spend $80 Australian dollars/app-store pricing, and bought outright instead of subscribed. Happy with what I paid there.
